No it is not a crime to go to the convenience store to buy a drink, but why does a minor with a bad school record for getting in trouble, have to go and walk to a convenience store and buy ingredients to make purple drink.
Skittles and the drink Trayvon bought are both used for that...was he really in need for a drink and the candy of was there something else on his mind?
There are more gaps in his time line and I wonder if the dad and his GF didn't have a drink in the fridge.
How many teenagers want to get wet just for a drink and skittles?
I thought the POTUS was in favor of parents guiding their kids more...the mom send the son away since she couldn't handle him any more and the 3rd school suspension showed it. She tried and wasn't able to keep him under control.
The father should have told him to stay there and take a drink from the fridge or water and watch the game...
If you kid is on school suspension wouldn't you want to watch him more and not having him hang out or go to a convenience store where the crime rate usually is higher and specially higher than sitting at home.
Wasn't the father aware of the 9burglaries all committed by young black teenagers or young males?
Wouldn't that be a reason to keep your son inside so he wouldn't be contacted and having a chance for his son to meet the wrong people?
These are questions I have...
They are not race related since if the crimes were committed by Asians, Hispanics or Whites and the teenager would have the same ethnicity as the people known to commit the crime I would feel exactly the same about the issue.
So it's your fault if you go outside and you're black and you get profiled, is that what you're saying? Because that's really what the gist of it seems to be, before anyone starts talking details of the case whether Trayvon assaulted Zimmerman or not what I'm seeing in this OP is blaming for Trayvon going out in the first place, for the father letting his 17 year old son walk over to the convenience store to get himself a snack when he knows that his son might get profiled for that, shifting the blame to those black people for not knowing their place right? Like blaming a rape victim for wearing a skirt.
Oh and as to your purple drink implication I don't believe they found anything like that in his system.

I have walked to the store for skittles and an Arizona drink before, thankfully I am white and some moron hasn't confronted me thinking I was breaking into houses and shot me to death for the false accusation.
